EG–384 ENGINE – 2JZ–GE ENGINE TROUBLESHOOTING DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM DESCRIPTION CHECK FIG834 The ECM contains a built–in self–diagnosis system by which troubles with the engine signal network are detected and a Mal- function Indicator Lamp on the instrument panel lights up. By analyzing various signals as shown in a later table (See page EG–388) the Engine Control Module (ECM) detects system mal- functions relating to the sensors or actuators. In the normal mode, the self–diagnosis system monitors 18 (California specification vehicles) or 17 (except for California and Canadian specification) items, indicated by code No. as shown in EG–388. A malfunction indicator lamp informs the driver that a malfunction has been detected. The lamp goes off automatically when the malfunction has been repaired, but the diagnostic trouble code(s) remains stored in the ECM memory (except for code Nos. 16 and 53). The ECM stores the code(s) until it is cleared by removing the EFI No. 1 fuse with the ignition switch OFF. The diagnostic trouble code can be read by the number of blinks of the malfunction indicator lamp when TE1 and E1 terminals on the data link connector 1 or 2 are connected. When 2 or more codes are indicated, the lowest number (code) will appear first. In the test mode, 12 (California specification vehicles) or 11 (ex- cept for California and Canadian specification vehicles) items, in- dicated by code No. as shown in EG–388 are monitored. If a mal- function is detected in any one of the systems indicated by code Nos. 13, 21, 22, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 35, 41, 71 and 78 (California specification vehicles) or 13, 21, 22, 24, 25, 28, 35, 41, 71 and 78 (except for California and Canadian specification vehicles) the ECM lights the malfunction indicator lamp to warn the technician that a malfunction has been detected. In this case, TE2 and E1 terminals on the data link connector 2 should be connected as shown later. (See page EG–386). In the test mode, even if the malfunction is corrected, the malfunc- tion code is stored in the ECM memory even when the ignition switch OFF (except code Nos. 43 and 51). This also applies in the normal mode. The diagnostic trouble mode (normal or test) and the output of the malfunction indicator lamp can be selected by connecting the TE1, TE2 and E1 terminals on the data link con- nector 2, as shown later. A test mode function has been added to the functions of the self– diagnosis system of the normal mode for the purpose of detecting malfunctions such as poor contact, which are difficult to detect in the normal mode. This function fills up the self–diagnosis system. The test mode can be implemented by the technician following the appropriate procedures of check terminal connection and opera- tion described later.
